It came out in the www.baxterblack.com Colorado ag groups team up to fight state ballot proposal A coalition of Colorado agricultural organizations, including the Colorado Cattlemen’s Association and Colorado Farm Bureau, is banding together to oppose a state ballot proposal that, if passed, would criminal- ize common veterinary and animal care practices. The proposed initiative would alter animal cruelty laws to essentially prevent cattle from being harvested before they reach five years of age. The bill would also outlaw animal husbandry practices like artificial insemination and pregnancy checking. “We’ve come together to oppose one of the most radi- cal and reactionary ballot initiative proposals this state has ever seen,” rancher Carlyle Currier of the Colorado Farm Bureau said. “We can’t allow such a direct and bra- zen attack on one of the state’s largest and most historic industries to go unanswered.” Farmers & Ranchers Livestock Commission Co., Inc.
